A member asked:

I had a brostrom procedure on monday. now i have numbness in my 5th toe and feelings of tingling/rubbing near the incision is this normal, what to do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Postop numbness: Call your surgeon's office. Splint/dressing may be too tight and need to be adjusted. May also be related to swelling around nerves near the surgical site. You shouldn't feel your incision being rubbed... Limit movement, elevate, ice. Most likely can wait till Monday morning, but it not sure, call surgeon's office for instructions.
